Any updates on this? I really enjoyed State of Dev. It was a great thing to watch in the morning with tea. I hope both of you are doing well, and want you to know that there's still interest in this dev series!

I'm excited for next Wednesday then! I hope you're having a great time in Japan.

Will you be doing a state of dev on Wednesday?

Windows 11 has problems. Pushing ads in the start menu is not ok.

Mac also has issues. The maximize button should not full screen unless you hold a key or hover. The walled garden also isn't great.

Both have issues. I'm hoping Mac will be "good enough".

It was really fun to make. It's based on ideas from Jace Varlet's dialog system that he describes in youtu.be/6BsPkI4pCOI?... and some of his other videos.

I haven't released it or anything since it's just for my project. Theoretically though it should work on any project. There's utilities to pull data out of it which any app could use in code. I hope to use it in any game that requires dialog for myself.

So far mine is a plug-in to Godot. A dialog editor that lets me write dialog, associate it with characters and their images, and create POT files for translations.

Damn, I was actually thinking of switching to @proton.me and now I think I have to reconsider. I'm quite disappointed in them, especially with no communication.

Unfortunately there's a bug in the non skippable tutorial which prevents me from playing at all. Just sitting at a gem page as it tries to get me to claim an unclaimable item with no inputs working.

They really should have done a bug bash yesterday. This is going to throw a lot of people off.

I'm done with this. I'm a programmer so you could just use "programmer" or "game programmer" if you want to be specific. I think developers in computers have just traditionally been used as a synonym for programmer so I see why it happens. But I do feel like other roles are just as important.

Yes, mainly because I support several content creators and follow things. I only play TCG with a single friend however.

I will say though, the alternative was to pay like $100 for parking. So a $5 round trip, even with a wait, seems pretty worth it.

We used it last night as well. Getting there was fine. Leaving was a giant line that would have taken a very long time if we didn't have access to the accessibility line.

It was nice that it was there, but it did seem woefully under equipped for the volume of people using it.

I miss going to sky so much. It was awe inspiring when I first made it there.

I used to worry a bit as a programmer that AI would have me out of a job. It turns out AI can't independently actually code anything complicated and the next generation will lean on it so much there won't be new programmers who know how to code.

I'll probably be fine for a while.
